As a business owner, your business should be your greatest ally. It shapes the person you are and the life you are living. Unfortunately, the organization in which we work can become our enemy rather than our friend. I work on a daily basis with business owners who are frustrated and overworked. They are not the most effective, the most fulfilled in their business, or the ones creating the most... Read more ›

Until now, Twitter required new users to fill out a form for an account, and didn’t support any third-party sign-on options. But that’s changing. The social network is now letting you sign in or sign up through your Google and Apple ID. You can use your Google ID on the app or on the web. However, your Apple ID will only work on iOS devices for now; support for the... Read more ›

It’s been a while since I reviewed an HP laptop, so when I first received my review unit of the 14-inch HP Spectre x360 several months ago, I was taken aback by just how gorgeous it is. It’s a stunning laptop that looks like nothing else in the market, and it offers a well-thought-out collection of features, ports, and performance. Honestly, if it weren’t for a few minor quirks specific... Read more ›

With awe-inspiring procession, a cloud of 1,824... Read more ›

I love YouTube, but damn, I hate the ads. Every day, my precious streaming time is rudely interrupted by some snake oil salesman promising to make me a fortune in seconds. The 2015 launch of YouTube Red (now rebranded as YouTube Premium) offered an escape, but €11.99 per month is a hefty price tag when you’re already strapped for cash. Six years later, a more affordable alternative has appeared on... Read more ›

Google has taken an unusual approach to leaks over the past few years, revealing models and designs before their official announcement and actually confirming leaks. This year it’s taking that to another level, showing off the Pixel 6 (and Pixel 6 Pro) in their full visual glory well before its expected official announcement, which would typically happen in the fall. I mean, if you can’t beat ’em, join ’em, right?... Read more ›

Robopets are artificially intelligent machines created to look like an animal (usually a cat or dog, but they can be any animal). There are numerous robopets on the market right now, being sold to consumers as “pets” or companions. There is an especially fervent effort being made to set caregivers’ minds at ease by buying these robopets for older adults to replace their deceased or surrendered companion animals. Animal lovers... Read more ›

The lawsuit alleges a “pervasive ‘frat boy’ culture” at the company and discrimination against women in pay and promotion. The turmoil is an echo of the infamous Gamergate... Read more ›

A first-of-its-kind EV charging system that sits flush within the pavement is being installed in London. The “flat and flush” charge points require no permanent raised street furniture at the pavement edge, which means they don’t take up any space when not in use. The chargers then pop up when a user plugs a cable in. Scottish startup Trojan Energy designed the tech to provide on-street charging to people who... Read more ›

Have you been vaccinated yet? And if you have, are you one of a growing number of people who posted a selfie on social media afterward? At a time when many people distrust government advertising, vaccine selfies — or “vaxxies” — may well be the secret weapon to encourage more people to get the jab. Suddenly our Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram feeds are filling up with selfies of family, friends,... Read more ›

Earlier this morning, fintech giant Square announced that it has struck a deal to acquire Australia-based AfterPay for a whopping $29 billion. Square is acquiring the company in an all-stock deal, the final transaction will take place in the first quarter of 2022.

Thanks to the pandemic, I’ve had to participate in at least a few video calls every week, either for work or to catch up with friends. Most platforms were great to use last year, when they offered unlimited free calls and other features at no cost. But now, these platforms have been scaling back on free features. Last month, Google Meet limited its free group calls to 60 minutes. That... Read more ›

All around the world, there is an extreme gender imbalance in physics, in both academia and industry. Examples are all too easy to find. In Burkina Faso’s largest university, the University of Ouagadougou, 99% of physics students are men. In Germany, women comprise only 24% of physics PhD graduates — creeping up from 21% in 2017. No women graduated in physical sciences at the University of El Salvador between 2017... Read more ›

Stablecoins are a type of cryptocurrency linked to an asset like the U.S. dollar that doesn’t change much in value. The majority of the dozens of stablecoins that currently exist use the dollar as their benchmark asset, but many are also pegged to other fiat currencies issued by governments like the euro and yen. As a result, the price of stablecoins fluctuates very little, unlike high-profile cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and... Read more ›

Microsoft just released the first public and stable beta for Windows 11, but not everyone will be able to install it. Even though Windows 11 appears to be more of a visual overhaul than a dramatic reinvention of the OS, Microsoft has made some key changes that make it exclusive to newer hardware. Even some of the company’s own Surface devices won’t be able to run Windows 11, so here’s... Read more ›

There should only be one — and preferably only one — obvious way to do it”, says the Zen of Python. Yet there are areas where even seasoned programmers debate what the right or wrong way to do things is. One of these areas is Python classes. Borrowed from Object-Oriented Programming, they’re quite beautiful constructs that you can expand and modify as you code. The big problem is that classes... Read more ›
